Whoever visited the forums when they were hacked, run anti-virus and/or antispyware software. BUT NOT THE ONES THAT MAY POP UP FOR YOU IF YOU GOT A BAD ATTACK--get some good free ones like AVG Free and Ad-Aware. I got a lot of crap when I visited the FK1 forums to see what was going on. | |

I had a job rec a few years ago for a hacker to assist in the design of security for a mid size investment bank in NYC. The person they ended up placing in the job designed an incredible security system but of course left a back door. This back door was flushed out in an post completion audit and the "hired hacker" was arrested and sued. | |

Autopia Forums and ACC store are completely separate, as are MOL and the Meg's store, etc., etc.
